Default Seat/Bar combo

Okay, here's a twist that I haven't found many searches already discussing...I recently put an HD Brawler solo seat on my '11 SG...LOVE the seat and the new look.

My issue is that the with the down and back change in position, the original bars I was looking at moving to(Klock Werx Ergo Standards) seem like they might move my hands up and out too much...so now I'm at an impasse as to what makes sense.

I think I need something to pull back rather than move up but still flatten my wrists(which is my original need for new bars). Anyone running a Brawler had issues with bars and found the right combo to correct it?

Thanks!

Mike, maybe instead of the Ergo Standard bar, look at the Ergo Back model...

I have a buddy that runs the Brawler seat and the Ergo ups. He loves it, as do I. It's not for the vertically challenged though, he's about 6'4" and I'm 6'8".
